Its a great camera Vito, i'm sure it'll be worth all the hours of hard work and sweat:?.
I'm saving for a 20D. The reason being that i shoot sports mostly and thats the only flaw with the 300D that i can see.

there are a lot of dog owners here...dog lovers, all. I had my lab for 16 years. I now have a little Bichon. What do they both have in common? They both had/have the preference for curling up and snoozing on the family shoes by the door! Never mind how bumpy a bed it makes. They seem to love the scent of family members while they sleep...my guess. Very familiar, very welcome sight. I smile when i see this one. good shot!
